I like the fact that Shi Dakai is the only one of the generals to actually have more than two brains cells to point out infighting is detrimental when they're in the middle of a war with an enemy garrison is camped outside your capital
Everytime I learn something about the rebellion it is just so crazy from start to finish. ✝
And this, kids, is why chinese governments get extremely twitchy when they see organised religion getting involved in politics.
He cant keep making so good videos!!!! 😭
Top tier as always.
Agreed
Honestly I think the most fascinating thing about the Taiping Rebellion is asking what the FUCK would the world have been like if it succeeded.
fun fact, one of Hong Xiuquan's early teachers was either a Baptist or a Methodist from America (I forget which, exactly) and the God Worshipper Society was a lot like American Evangelical Protestants
Yes
That says a lot
That explains why he was so bloody nuts it’s the religion of lunatics
Y'all ever find something you didn't know about, think it's fake because of how weird it is, and then get proven wrong?
the kenshi music is so fitting considering the similarities between heavenly kingdom and the holy nation. probably wouldve ended up like the hn if they won too
Fuck the holy nation, all my homies hate the holy nation.

Yea, even if he wasn’t the “brother of Jesus” it doesn’t matter. China would be Christian and would follow God.
I suspect the only reason it failed and was without Gods support to be because of him claiming to be the brother of Jesus
@PossessedPotatoBird yeah, if he was ACTUALLY the brother of Christ, maybe he could've just kept it a secret and win the rebbelion first.
most who fought wouldn't have been Christian.

Not gonna lie, this is my favorite war. Its so weird and crazy.

Alright now im thinkng boxer rebellion and 55 days at peking
Nice video, man! oh, also, after this I highly suggest you do the Paraguayan war.
amazing video
If Hong Xiuquan won, he would basically became the Chinese Muhammad, and the Baishangdijiao would not be considered a Christian variant but like Islam, an Abrahamic but completely separate religion. And thus the Abrahamic religions would dominate the whole world except India and Japan.
The Baishangdijiao dogma is actually a lot more interesting than "Hur dur I'm Jesus' brother". They believe the ancient Shangdi(上帝, "lord of the up") that was worshipped in ancient China (like, Shang dynasty oracle bone ancient, 3000 years ago) were the same being as Yahweh. But as time went on, the Chinese became corrupted and started worshiping idols and their own ancestors instead of Shangdi/Yahweh/God.
Finally when Qin Shi Huang united China and considered himself greater than 王(king), so he invented a new term for himself, the Huangdi (皇帝, emperor). It's like a giant "fuck you" to Shangdi, so he abandoned the Chinese and went blessing the west instead. If you notice the Qin dynasty started about 200 years before Jesus' birth, you can kinda see how he formed this reasoning.
We finally found him. Gods drunkest driver; Hong Xiuquan
Modern high school students after failing: Dagnamit i need to ry harder.

Thank you for the superb presentation, CallMeEzekiel! I do wonder how the CCP handles this religious revelation from Hong Xiuquan in the school curricula of the People's Republic of China.
This sounds like a plot to an anime.
This video is too good to have so little views, i don't care if it's only been 10 days, this artstyle is too clean and good
Hoping you would cover this the taiping rebellion deserve more Attention
When you fail the civil service exam four times: Guess i"ll revolt
And hundred years later one guy who failed to enter a art university, did kind of the same thing 💀💀

One of the best chapters in Chinese History.
Leaving a comment for our boy, ✝God's Chinese Son, Hong Xiuquan.
In fact, from Wendigoon's knowledge, Jesus did has siblings, but they turned their backs on him because of jealousy. So in fact it gave credence to Hakka claiming the Vatican was infiltrated by "Devil-Dogs" especially with how they played their cards throughout history. And who they supported, Hakka was pretty much right about it all.
It wouldn't surprise me if whoever Jesus actually was had siblings. This shouldn't actually be a big contradiction to Christians because Christ is the son of God and Mary, not Mary and her husband. So Mary's other kids shouldn't really be all that relevant to sceipture.
@@liarwithagun
The scripture never says that Mary had other children. It only says that Jesus had brothers and sisters. Generally it’s assumed that Joseph was an older man who already had children from a previous marriage and that he died sometime before Jesus’s ministry due to his lack of presence past the nativity. It’s taught that Mary herself was a perpetual virgin by the Church, who has the authority to decide on matters of interpretation like this.
It’s also possible that the brothers and sisters of Jesus could’ve been other relatives, as the term for brothers and sisters was used much more broadly back in those days.

Western Nations: “Oh cool, a Christian movement in China is gaining popularity, let’s go check it out!”

Modern China is an atheist country, and Christians make up a very small proportion of the Chinese population.
